Do not kick to Devon Hester. If special teams blows a winnable game, my head will explode. I do not trust them to contain anyone at this point. Let them go the field instead of the quick score. Hester my not be the best anymore, but he is still good enough to blow this squad up.

Atlanta's advantage in this game starts with special teams. (Actually, it starts with home field, then special teams.) Carolina has the worst special teams in the league this year according to FO ratings. The worst part of the unit, by far, is punting. It's not just the two blocked punts by Minnesota; the Panthers have also allowed 17 returns of over 10 yards, more than any team except Oakland. The Falcons have two strengths on special teams this year. One is field goals, where Matt Bryant has been excellent and ranks third in the league. The other is some dude named Devin Hester. Perhaps you have heard of him? He returns punts. Brad Nortman may have had his best game of the year in Week 11, keeping Hester from making a return with four punts that were downed and two that Hester fair caught. It's going to be hard to keep Hester from any returns a second time.

      Chubba

      By Proudiddy · Posted

      I love Chubba.  Been a fan since I heard about his story when he was at Ok St.  and no doubt his production and progression is impressive, but this is my one nitpick - he was always touted for his speed, having come from a track background, so I am honestly surprised he doesn’t have more breakaway runs for TDs than what he has achieved thus far.  But to be fair, it often feels like he is constantly having to break tackles, so when he breaks the last one where it would just be nothing between him and the end zone, that usually took long enough that a defender from the opposite side of the field got an angle to catch up.  I really hope with the receiver additions, Bryce moving forward with confidence and proving that ending stretch last season wasn’t an aberration, and another year of synergy for the OL, Chubba is gonna have some wide open running this season.  He is definitely special.  Proud of him and happy he is getting rewarded for all his hard work…

      If you're in the left lane, look to the right. Is there someone beside you? Are you soon overtaking someone in the right lane immediately ahead of you? No and no? Then get the fug over. That's how it's supposed to work. Doesn't matter if you're going 100.
